[Opinions] Re: Adriana
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I wouldn't expect an Adriana in an English-speaking environment: that would be Adrienne, and there are still a few young ones but it's mostly for over-forties. In English, I'd pronounce it AYdreeANa; I've never heard Ariana, but I'd guess it would sound like AReeANa, with AR like the first syllable of Harry, without the H: in my accent anyway.
